THE HOME＋DISTRIBUTION＋WINTER DATA＝THE COMFORT PLAN
01 / HOUSE-FIRST PLANNING
The first component is the home.
Floor area alone cannot describe heat loss, solar gain, room use, doors, ducts or a difficult north-facing bedroom. Begin with the building and how it actually behaves across the seasons.
The winter view above establishes the outdoor condition. This frame returns the decision to rooms, doors, placement and the way comfort moves through the home.

VERNON WINTER / CONCEPTUAL SITE STUDY
04 / OUTDOOR UNIT + ELECTRICAL
The equipment meets the site.
Map electrical capacity, indoor-to-outdoor routes, defrost drainage, snow, clearances, sound context and service access before treating a location as settled.
Program amounts, customer and home requirements, equipment criteria, professional roles and timing can change. Verify the current route before ordering equipment or counting an incentive in the project budget.
01Record the program URL and check date
02Match customer, property and system criteria
03Confirm required contractor or advisor route
04Preserve equipment, invoice and submission records
Home load, room needs, distribution assessment and outdoor assumptions.
02
Winter data
Exact equipment schedule, relevant capacity data, backup and controls.
03
Complete scope
Electrical, routes, drainage, outdoor siting, permits and exclusions.
04
Commissioning
Startup data, control setup, owner training and maintenance records.
07 / VERNON HOME QUESTIONS
Ask for the winter story.
Can a heat pump be sized from floor area alone?＋
No. The home’s envelope, rooms, distribution, existing use, renovation plans and relevant outdoor conditions belong in a project-specific calculation and assessment.
Is ducted always better than ductless?＋
No. They are different distribution strategies. Compare the actual room map, ducts or head locations, routes, comfort goals, maintenance and scope.
What should cold-weather data show?＋
Ask for the selected model’s published capacity at the relevant outdoor conditions beside the home’s calculated need, plus a clear backup and control strategy.
Where should an outdoor unit be placed?＋
The location should be assessed for airflow, clearance, defrost drainage, snow and ice, sound context, neighbours, service access, routes and current requirements.
Can the rebate amount be guaranteed?＋
No. Programs and eligibility can change. Verify the current program, requirements, professional roles, equipment and timing before relying on an incentive.
HOME + COMFORT BRIEF
Start with how the home feels.
Share the existing heating, uncomfortable rooms, known distribution, outdoor constraints and project goals. Project-specific assessment is needed before sizing or eligibility conclusions.
